KUANTAN: A herd of cattle unexpectedly traversed traffic at a junction in Sungai Isap, causing a major disruption. Motorists had to wait while the animals casually crossed against the red light. A video of the bizarre event, captured around 8pm yesterday, surfaced on Facebook and sparked mixed reactions. The video maker was taken aback by the sudden appearance of the roaming cattle.
"Who's cow got loose near the Sungai Isap traffic light? I was quite shocked," the post read, adding that if the government permitted citizens to claim unattended cattle on roads, they would gladly transport one. Commenters urged the Kuantan City Council to take action, as the junction is a major access route into town. One user claimed the cattle as their own, but requested one to be left behind.
The incident has drawn attention to the growing safety issue of cattle roaming onto roads during heavy traffic, prompting calls for livestock owners to secure their animals better.
